Keeping You “Armed to the Teeth” in the
Battle Against Tooth Decay

With oral health being integral to overall health
it’s frightening to realize that tooth decay in
children is reaching epidemic proportions

Posted by Dolores Volker

Dallas, TX, --(Wobwire.com) -  With the launch
of their new website,
The Twooth Timer
Company has also launched their new blog,
Twooth® Talk.

“Our focus is on children’s dental health,” says Antoinette de Janasz,
company Founder and President, “and we found there were no blogs dealing
solely with that issue. With oral health being integral to overall health it’s
frightening to realize that tooth decay in children is reaching epidemic
proportions …and it’s preventable! Knowledge is the key.” Twooth® Talk is a
resource for parents to learn about oral hygiene, ask questions, get tips from
dental hygienists and other parents, plus discover new & useful products.

In its February report, The Pew Center on the States cited that every year 1
out of 5 children under the age of 18 goes without dental care.  This
increases the risks for tooth decay and the costs for treatment later on. A
2007 study by the CDC found that the number of cavities in children between
the ages of 2 and 5 has increased 15%, and the statistics are even worse for
underprivileged children.  “Unfortunately many children living below the
poverty line have no access to preventive dental care but there are
organizations, such as Christina’s Smile,  that are working to change that
and we want to support them. To help us accomplish this goal we need to get
a lot of subscribers so we can attract advertisers!” added  Antoinette.
Parents and dental professionals are invited to ‘subscribe & save a smile’ at
www.twoothtimer.com. Also available on the website are fun & educational
free downloads in both English and Spanish! These downloads are great
handouts for teachers, parents and dental offices in need of another weapon
in the battle against tooth decay!

The Twooth Timer Company was incorporated in February 1999. The
company’s first product, Twooth® Timer, began as an idea in August 1998
during a routine dental checkup. After being told by the dentist that her
children needed to brush their teeth for two minutes (instead of ten
seconds!), company Founder and President, Antoinette de Janasz, designed
the Twooth® Timer. Through the development and marketing of the
Twooth® Timer, Antoinette has learned of the importance of dental hygiene
and its role in the overall health of the body. Through their products,
website, and free downloads, Antoinette hopes to share this knowledge with
others and help them achieve a lifetime of healthy smiles!
